Providence Healthcare is a registered NDIS provider. We began with a simple idea: better quality services for people living with a disability. We understand “it takes a village” to provide supports that are deemed fair and reasonable. Equipped with this simple philosophy we developed and nurtured an inclusive workplace culture that empowered our people to represent the wider communities. Using our shared expertise from the Health and Medical arena, we became a registered NDIS Services Provider
- one that championed best practices in understanding how best to leverage evidence-based theories and strength-based approaches to support the independent living and independent decision-making of clients.

This proved to be exactly what the community needed, as Providence Healthcare has grown into a multi
- dimensional NDIS services provider. Our team of like-minded, community-focused Nurses, Exercise Physiologists, Psychologists, Therapy Assistants provide expert support to daily living and community access support teams inside and outside our company to ensure all-round and complete solutions in quality in home and community care.

Support Workers play an integral role in the success of our services and the achievement of our vision, mission, and organisational objectives.
